In this episode, we look at Australia’s first bank note and how it replaced rum as the nation’s preferred currency. We also reveal the hidden story of how a 10-kilogram gold nugget became an unwitting prop in a game of office cricket.

Join journalist Charles Wooley and Australian Museum Director Kim McKay as they explore the astounding objects and specimens of the 200 Treasures of the Australian Museum exhibition, housed in the nation’s oldest museum gallery.
